Too bad the article doesn't describe exactly what Chinese Traditional Medicine was used.


As the article states, "all TCM prescriptions have shown very good clinical effects", so it doesn't matter which prescription you use, they all work about the same. Of course that means the effect is unlikely to be due to any active ingredient, but rather due to the medicine being labeled "traditional" and the psychological effect that has.


Misleading should be removed
